Installing Yu-Gi-Oh! Scraper

To install Yu-Gi-Oh! Scraper using PyPI, run:

pip install yugioh-scraper

I strongly recommend installing Yu-Gi-Oh! Scraper in a dedicated virtual environment to avoid conflicting with your system packages.

Using a Virtual Environment

TL;DR: We recommend installing Yu-Gi-Oh! Scraper inside a virtual environment on all platforms.

Python packages can be installed globally (a.k.a system-wide) or in user space. We do not recommend installing Yu-Gi-Oh! Scraper system-wide.

Instead, we recommend that you install Yu-Gi-Oh! Scraper within a so-called “virtual environment” (venv). Virtual environments allow you to not conflict with already-installed Python system packages (which could break some of your system tools and scripts) and still install packages, usually with pip (without sudo and the likes).

See Virtual Environments and Packages on how to create your virtual environment.

Once you have created a virtual environment, you can install Yu-Gi-Oh! Scraper inside it with pip, just like any other Python package.
